Displaying categories

Categories can be nested as deeply as you wish.

Here's an example of showing two levels deep for your image gallery categories:

<?php echo $fms->categories( array('type' => 'gallery', 'levels' => 2) ); ?>

You can use any combination of options, with as few or as many as you choose.

  • type

    Get the type of category (gallery or layouts). If no type is chosen, defaults to gallery

  • title

    If set to false, the title is not shown. If anything else, FMS will use it as HTML tags surrounding the title (h2 will give <h2>Title</h2>). Defaults to h2

  • list

    The HTML element to wrap each category in the list. Defaults to li

  • slug

    Defines whether or not you want to make the category a link, with true or false. Defaults to true

  • levels

    The number of levels of children. For example, if you have Backgrounds > Dark > Grunge > Animated, setting levels to 2 will display Backgrounds > Dark > Grunge. Defaults to 2

  • count

    Displays a count of the number of items in each category; true or false; defaults to true

  • class

    Gives the HTML surrounding your categories a class. A class of menu will display <ul class=“menu”> <li>Category</li> </ul>. Defaults to menu
